   My personal blog : http://lengrand.fr/ I don't know if it's 'awesome' but it seems some people at least like it :). Mostly Elm and Java related things, or more social. The most visited page by far is a list of all Computer Vision companies I ever came across that I maintain for 10+ years now. https://lengrand.fr/computer-vision-companies/

   Yours is a product and mine was just made for fun but I really like your project and had a similar journey last year. E-paper is a perfect use case for a dynamic shelf calendar https://lengrand.fr/complete-setup-epaper/

   Was so excited about Remarkable, and got disappointed with basically everything I was excited about. Not for me. I do look like the look and feel of the thing though, shame i know it won't fit what I need. https://lengrand.fr/impressions-on-the-remarkable-2-one-mont...

   You mean ports and flags? It's described right in the tutorial : https://guide.elm-lang.org/interop/ports.html . I wouldn't call it not possible. It is necessary to have the cool stuff of Elm, unfortunately (or not). It's not rocket science tough, and it allows for clean interfaces. I wrote about it just a couple ago ago : https://lengrand.fr/a-short-introduction-to-ports-and-flags-...

    Love those projects! Did something quite similar a few years ago, found it quite useful and there's something just nice about eink displays for showing info that normal screens don't have https://lengrand.fr/complete-setup-epaper/

    I used to have cheatsheets also (see here for the last version[1]), but I end up never use it because Google is simply faster . . . I'll probably write some lines on FreeMind in a future post :) [1] http://www.lengrand.fr/programming-tips-2/

    I wrote about this a few months ago : http://www.lengrand.fr/2012/12/how-we-won-our-first-startup-... Basically, No need to be technical. I would even say that being not technical is better than being too much. The whole experience is awesome. You meet so much cool people. Just go and enjoy, you'll surely get inspired :).
